UK BAE Systems has landed a new contract to provide stealth technologies for the Joint Strike Missile. The firm has won a £3 million contract to support Norwegian Kongsberg’s Joint Strike Missile (JSM) system.
This will see BAE provide radar-absorbing material and sensor development and technology integration expertise for the JSM, the manufacturer said in a 16 July company statement.
The JSM is currently being adapted by Japan and Norway and can be stored internally by F-35A jets for anti-ship and land attack purposes.
